I was inspired by the Texas music movement lead by RIP DJ Screw. As I am growing up lean is everywhere around me wether it be in music videos, people I know consuming it, it being offered to me....etc I was also in need of an actual representation of the artist who made the cup logo @contactdlean who goes by the name Dlean. It was his first official collaboration with TRAPPINN. The BRAND so TRAPPINNxDLean. So I put all that in my mind and so the logo was born. I came to my friend with the idea and we made it happen.

Promethazine or lean or Texas tea, purple drank, dirty sprite...etc is called many names but usually ends up with the same results after overconsumption and that is death and or kidney failure or seizures...etc

Codeine-related deaths have increased by almost 25% in the past year to a record high, according to data from the Office for National Statistics (ONS)

Therefore we do not encourage the purchase of lean for any purposes other than medical and prescribed by a licensed doctor or to dump it down the drain. We do not encourage consumption of Lean for any purposes other than medical purposes which is prescribed by a licensed doctor.

It's just that Lean is integrated in every aspect of the TRAP/hiphop culture whether it be the music or gatherings. It's a staple, Lean will be present or talked about. Also the aesthetics of Lean and the pop or other drinks that it is mixed with makes it appealing to the younger generation making it a cool drug. But we are here to let you know it is not. It is highly addictive and can be deadly. We are here to spread awareness on our site and other outlets such as informational print items which we distribute when we are on the road educating on the negative side effects of Lean and the current death rates from lean.

Rappers who struggled with Lean:

Lil Wayne

Future:

In a June 2016 interview with Rolling Stone, Future talked about his experience with lean, which he popularized as “Dirty Sprite”. “At first, it wasn’t something that I loved. It wasn’t till I discovered what I loved about it. Some people take drugs and they don’t understand the high. They take it just to be high. It started making me more relaxed. Sometimes you experience anxiety, and it did me some good for that. I don’t feel like I ever abused it. I used it for what I felt was needed.”

While working on his WRLD on Drugs album, young rapper Juice WRLD confessed to Future that his music made him try lean as a child. “When he told me that, I was like ‘Oh shit. What the fuck have I done?'” Future said in an interview with Rolling Stone in January 2019. In an earlier interview with Genius.com, Future has confirmed that he has quit lean for good and admitted that he worried about letting his fans know, fearing a backlash after making so many codeine-fueled tracks.

2chainz

In a 2011 interview with Vibe Magazine, 2 Chainz said about his favourite drink, “I’ve probably been drinking since maybe 2007, so it’s a little different for me because it wasn’t well-known, but the truth about promethazine/codeine is that it’s a pharmaceutical drug. No one makes it in a tub or anything. Moderate use is cool but I think that’s hard for people to do that. But I definitely don’t promote people using it.”

DannyBrown

In 2013 in an interview with English DJ Tim Westwood, who runs YouTube channel TimWestwoodTv, Danny Brown talked about weight gain and issued a PSA against Lean. Lean by recipe has a lot of sugar in it from the soda, the cough syrup, and the hard candy, if any is added. Using Gucci Mane as an example, he talked about being constipated and bloated when one drinks too much lean. And once you quit lean, he revealed it will be an all-out flood-gates-open diarrhea. “So, don’t drink lean, kids, don’t drink lean. I don’t think it should be a drug that’s glorified. It’s liquid heroin, it’s an opiate"

Boosie:

Check out this tweet below from TMZ

He nearly died three or four times from drinking lean and says it's 'f*cked up a lot of rappers and the culture of hip-hop.' He says users don't realize something that tastes like Kool-Aid can be so addictive.

Gucci Mane

In an interview with Highly Questionable of ESPN in January 2017, Gucci Mane reflected about his past mental health issues and lean addiction, which made him bloated and gain weight. He was drinking lean every day for around seven years and he said the drying up process was “indescribable and terrible”.
